High End Amp Price Collapse musings
Hey I am a dealer for the Bricasti M28 mono block amplifiers 30K. Don't talk about a collapse, it makes me very nervous...............and I am already nervous enough.  
Good preamp with Merlin TSM speakers?
Bobby used to recommend the Joule Electra to me as well when I was a dealer. When I heard the deHavilland I dropped the Joule Electra line completely. Those stupid Russian " super " tubes suck........the life out of the sound.

Why are Harbeth speakers expensive while its drivers are not.
Well this is interesting. It seems to obvious to suggest that perhaps those far more expensive drivers would not...A. Sound as good as the ones Harbreth uses.B. Match the crossover.C. Are as reliable.D. Are as musical sounding. 
Up to $4500 burning a hole in my pocket
Well mofojo First I must commend you on not being concerned about the dreaded "wife input" which in my experience seems to never be resolved. Since that hurdle has been crossed you are a free ( except of alimony payments ) to choose the perfect sp... 
Materials to reduce sidewall flex & vibration ?
Then don't buy new speakers, buy used ones on Audiogon.  
Materials to reduce sidewall flex & vibration ?
My final weight in. Buy new speakers and give up the science experiment.  
Materials to reduce sidewall flex & vibration ?
You should note that low mass materials resonate at higher frequencies. Ping a wine glass and you can see how that works. Now take a hammer to a heavy piece of metal. Much lower frequency. High frequencies are easier to dampen. To stop the wine gl... 
Stand mount speakers for a very large room !!
Well why didn't you give us your budget in the first place. I would certainly have recommended the Wilson Benesch Endeavor. You can pick up a pair for under $49,950.Light weight and they don't sound to bad.
